With so many combinations of ways to deliver learning online, trying to compare different models is like comparing apples to oranges. This week @englanderj brings some much-needed nuance to understanding the wide variety of #onlinelearning models: vhslearning.org/online-learn…

We stand against racism of ALL kinds. Bringing diverse groups of people together makes us stronger and the world a better place. Our Asian & Asian-American teachers, colleagues, and students are an integral part of VHS Learning and valuable members of our larger community. 1/2

A high school junior stayed on Zoom after my final class today. He said he “just wanted to do a vibe check on his teachers.” “Like... you're all checking in on us. But who’s checking in on you?"

He was a hero during the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. In a jailhouse interview there, Paul Rusesabagina spoke about how he was lured back to a country he vowed never to return to — where he'll stand trial for murder, arson and terrorism. nyti.ms/35Qh4SI

This video captures the best of what asynchronous online learning can offer when it is delivered with quality teachers and content, and employs the pedagogy of community and relationships in the classroom as central to the success of student learning. Way to @goVHS !

Where’s the outrage over the 23 GOP members who voted NO on a resolution condemning bigotry today? Oh, there’s none? Did they get called out, raked over, ambushed in halls and relentlessly asked why not? No? Okay. Got it.
